Nuno Felted Silk Dress with Indigo Dye
with Sweaterhex
$185
Create your own beautiful silk and wool dress in this workshop! Using the Nuno felting technique, a wet felting technique that incorporates open weave fabric with wool using repeated friction and compression, you'll take silk gauze and wool roving to create a seamless piece of wearable art- no sewing required. You'll finish off your one-of-a-kind garment with a dip in a natural indigo dye vat!
We ask that students bring in a top or dress that fits well to use as a template. Each garment will be unique, and will be made uniquely for you! You'll walk away with a beautiful completed garment and a new skill! No experience necessary.
All materials included (aside from a garment to use as a template).. 100% silk and wool!
This is a 6 hour workshop. We recommended bringing a snack or lunch.
